| − | == Status ==
| |
| − | The board '''boots NixOS from eMMC''' with the downstream u-boot and Rockchip trusted boot blob. Also flashing Rockchip tertiary bootloader (**idbloader**).
| |
| | | | |
| − | Additionally image provided by firefly on [http://www.t-firefly.com/doc/download/54.html the chinese download page], click on '''Ubuntu (GPT)'''. The image has also been uploaded to [https://archive.org/details/AIO-3399C archive.org].
| + | ⇒ '''[https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/NixOS_on_ARM/Firefly_AIO-3399C NixOS on ARM/Firefly AIO-3399C]''' |
| | | | |
| − | The official documentation, which is a pretty good state, can be found at [http://wiki.t-firefly.com/en/AIO-3399C/ the wiki of firefly].

| − | == Serial console ==
| |
| − | On the board there are 3 pins which have a 2.54mm pitch, this is the debug console with the text DEBUG on it. Starting from the middle to the side of the board:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * GND (Black Wire)
| |
| − | * RX (White Wire)
| |
| − | * TX (Green Wire)
| |
| − | * VCC, only the silver trace point and not a pin
| |
| − | | |
| − | Baud rate is <code>1500000</code>
| |
| − | Connect to it via:
| |
| − | <syntaxHighlight lang=bash>
| |
| − | nix-shell -p picocom --run "picocom -b 1500000 /dev/ttyUSB0"
| |
| − | </syntaxHighlight>
| |
| − | | |
| − | When you build your own image, you need the following extra kernel command-line parameters to get serial output:
| |
| − | <syntaxHighlight lang=nix>
| |
| − | {
| |
| − | boot.kernelParams = lib.mkForce ["console=ttyS2,1500000n8" "earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0xff1a0000" "earlyprintk"];
| |
| − | }
| |
| − | </syntaxHighlight>
| |
| − | Make sure you disable other consoles (tty0) as they seem to interfere with the output.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Board-specific installation notes ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Installation onto eMMC ===
| |
| − | {{note|it may be necessary to first flash the ubuntu gpt image before overriding the partitions with NixOS, use <code>upgrade_tool UF ./AIO-3399C-UBUNTU16.04-LVDS-GPT.img</code>}}
| |
| − | ==== boot parts ====
| |
| − | For booting the Image you will need the following parts:
| |
| − | | |
| − | # idbloader (rockchip proprietary)
| |
| − | # u-boot customized by firefly
| |
| − | # ARM Trusted image customized for working with uboot
| |
| − | | |
| − | The whole setup can be built by hand with the following scripts originally from user '''samueldr'''.
| |
| − | | |
| − | <syntaxHighlight lang=bash>
| |
| − | git clone https://github.com/makefu/ROC-RK3399-PC-overlay.git builder && cd builder
| |
| − | nix-build -A pkgsCross.aarch64-multiplatform.AIO-3399C.firmware
| |
| − | ls result/
| |
| − | cp result/{idbloader.img,uboot.img,trust.img} .
| |
| − | </syntaxHighlight>
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== boot and rootfs ====
| |
| − | The latest linux kernel (4.19 and up) is working with this board. Instead of building the image yourself you can fetch the latest sd-image from hydra and dd the created images onto the separate partitions.
| |
| − | You can find all the successful builds in [https://hydra.nixos.org/job/nixos/release-18.09-aarch64/nixos.sd_image.aarch64-linux hydra @ nixos:release-18.09-aarch64:nixos.sd_image.aarch64-linux]
| |
| − | | |
| − | <syntaxHighlight lang=bash>
| |
| − | # get the latest link directly from hydra
| |
| − | wget https://hydra.nixos.org/build/89033499/download/1/nixos-sd-image-18.09.2227.ea0820818a7-aarch64-linux.img -O sd.img
| |
| − | udisksctl loop-setup -f sd.img -r
| |
| − | dd if=/dev/loop0p1 boot.img
| |
| − | dd if=/dev/loop0p2 root.img
| |
| − | </syntaxHighlight>
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== Bringing the device into Rockchip loader mode ====
| |
| − | The board can easily be flashed by booting the device into the Rockchip ''loader'' mode. The device exposes the emmc with the rockusb protocol to a connected host pc.
| |
| − | | |
| − | To bring the device in the loader mode:
| |
| − | # Disconnect from power
| |
| − | # Connect USB-C from the board to your computer
| |
| − | # Hold 'Recovery' button pressed
| |
| − | # Connect power, wait for 2 (or more) seconds
| |
| − | # Short press the 'reset' button and release the 'Recovery' button afterwards
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== flashing all boot parts ====
| |
| − | <syntaxHighlight lang=bash>
| |
| − | # You should have the following files available:
| |
| − | $ ls *.img
| |
| − | boot.img root.img trust.img uboot.img idbloader.img
| |
| − | | |
| − | # enter loader or maskrom mode
| |
| − | nix-build -A AIO-3399C.upgrade_tool
| |
| − | # optional: re-flash the rockchip loader, haven't tested
| |
| − | # result/bin/upgrade_tool UL idbloader.img
| |
| − | result/bin/upgrade_tool di -u uboot.img -t trust.img -boot ./boot.img -rootfs root.img
| |
| − | result/bin/upgrade_tool rd # reset
| |
| − | </syntaxHighlight>
| |
| − | | |
| − | Now cross fingers, the system should boot into NixOS now, the getty BAUD rate
| |
| − | will change to <code>115200</code>.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Compatibility notes ==
| |
| − | See the [http://opensource.rock-chips.com/wiki_Status_Matrix Rockchip compatibility matrix]. Uboot requires the Rockchip Miniloader and an arm trusted boot image.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Downstream kernel ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | The downstream kernel sources can be found on github at [https://github.com/FireflyTeam/kernel]. The stable kernel branch they are maintaining is <code>4.4</code>, however mainline 4.19 is already work according to the [http://opensource.rock-chips.com/wiki_Status_Matrix Rockchip compatibility matrix].
| |
| − | | |
| − | === u-boot ===
| |
| − | Firefly maintains an own u-boot fork at [https://github.com/FireflyTeam/u-boot].
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Firefly upgrade_tool ===
| |
| − | Firefly provides an <code>upgrade_tool</code> which is a modified [http://opensource.rock-chips.com/wiki_Upgradetool rock-chip upgrade tool]. Using the upstream tool however may result in weird errors like being unable to flash the image or being unable to erase the flash. To be sure use the [https://archive.org/details/AIO-33399C archive.org mirror].
| |
| − | | |
| − | However, because the software is essentially a blob, you will need to either patchelf the thing or use '''steam-run''':
| |
| − | <syntaxHighlight lang=bash>nix-shell -p steam-run --run "steam-run ./upgrade_tool"</syntaxHighlight>
| |
| − | | |
| − | I tried flashing with the open-source rkflashtool (in the same repo as the
| |
| − | u-boot stuff), however i was unable to actually connect to the device neither in
| |
| − | "loader" nor in "maskrom" mode. I resorted to using the closed source blob
| |
| − | <code>upgrade_tool</code> which works directly.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Rockchip MaskROM Mode ===
| |
| − | Maskrom mode is a way to get extended privileges when flashing but you need to shorten two trace points on the board. Follow [http://wiki.t-firefly.com/en/AIO-3399C/maskrom_mode.html the official documentation]. However the loader mode should be enough for most things.
